Here are two friends I stay in touch with mostly via e-mail, but we always get together once a year at The Amazing Meeting. One is astronomer Phil Plait, the other is magician Jamy Ian Swiss. On Saturday night, Jamy astounded a large audience with his new show, Heavy Mental (not an easy task with a crowd full of skeptics and other magicians) -- but he is also one of the top sleight-of-hand artists in the world. Phil grabbed his video camera and asked Jamy to show off for a minute or so, and here you go...
After enjoying that, check out a sample from his Heavy Mental show on Jamy's website.
